Well, the Ravens glorified Lewis and continue to do so. That will not happen here. It will be as if AH never existed.
I think the unfortunate thing is that there were indeed many red flags on this guy when he was drafted. I mean you don't just tumble down from the first to the fourth because you smoked pot once or twice. Please. If his gang affiliations were known, and it appears they were, guns and killing is not exactly a great leap. So even if they didn't think he'd be a murderer, the chances of him being involved in something gun or shooting related were elevated.
Well, I'm sure the Patriots weren't the first FO to take a chance on a guy like this. It just backfired drastically on us. The thing is we aren't supposed to be like other FOs. We are supposed to be smarter. This definitely puts a tarnish on the brand. For however long, who knows. But as of now, yes, it does. How could it not? This idiot is alleged to be running out gunning people down while we forked over 40 million dollars to him. It makes me sick.
